Solution

The correct option is B 32.0g
1 mole of a gas at STP occupies a volume of 22.4 L.
The density of the gas at STP is 1.43 g/L.
The mass of 22.4 L of gas is 1.43g/L×22.4=32.0g.
Mass of 1 mole of the gas is equal to the gram-molecular mass of the gas.
Hence, gram-molecular mass of the gas is 32.0 g.
